    Really looking to seeing this finished!

    Are you bonding them to interfacing or piecing them together?

    Oh now that is a LOT of tiny pieces!!! I could send our new puppy to clean for you- she would eat all those little bits up. Along with every thing else on the floor. Of course, there would be an entirely different kind of mess then...

    What kind of design are you making with these? I can't see the pattern- or is it abstract?

    I am also waiting anxiously for the answers to everyone else's questions.

    My big question also is sewing or fusing?
    As for the maid, if I knew of such a paragon I'd be keeping her here.
    PS. Don't sneeze!

    HA! With all of your table/countertop surfaces, you still have to iron on the floor! I love this; it is SO real! The quilt is looking fab, btw.

    Wow, what are you going to do with all those pieces?

    I could stop by and clean up but you will have to pick up all 900+ pieces before I run the vacuum!

    What on earth are you making with all those little squares? I have a really good shop vac that I use to clean up my sewing studio - it would suck up everything!
